Abstract: Various examples of the inventive subject matter include a method and corresponding system for fabricating a combination paint arrestance filter for use in the painting industry. Embodiments of the system include a single-stage combination filter having a number of first layer media pockets and a number of second layer media pockets arranged downstream of the first layer pockets. An opening of each of the first layer media pockets is arranged in parallel with one another to receive an incoming airflow into the single-stage combination filter. Each of the second layer media pockets is at least 99.97% efficient at removing 0.3 micron and larger particles at a face velocity on the filter of about 37 meters per minute.

Abstract: A fluid filter is preferably constructed from a relatively thick batting of high loft, non-woven, fluid permeable fibrous material. The filter batting is then passed through a manufacturing device, which slices the batting in the vertical as to create two continuous filter batts from the parent filter batt. The slicing also creates a relatively deep V-shaped zig zag or waveform pattern in the anterior filter surfaces of the top and bottom of the batt. The top half deep V-shaped zigzag patterns peaks and valleys correspond or line up with the bottom half's valleys and peaks since the waveform landscape of the first child batt is essentially a negative impression of the second child batt. Accordingly, the patterns nest within one another. When separated, the two children batts each comprise a waveform landscape for dynamically directing fluid streams from the anterior filter surface to the posterior filter surface.

Abstract: A bag filter system including a filter media insert including a plurality of pockets. A tuck frame may be configured for mounting in a support frame of a filtration system. The tuck frame may be further configured to releasably engage at least a portion of the filter media insert. A wire frame may be disposed at least partially within the tuck frame. The wire frame may be configured to support the plurality of pockets of the filter media insert.

Abstract: An air filtration system includes a holding frame supported by a universal mounting frame and a cartridge in the holding frame. The holding frame has a header used to permanently mount and seal the holding frame to the universal frame. The filtration cartridge fits inside the holding frame and is easily replaceable. A seal is provided between the holding frame and cartridge to assure that air passing through the system passes through the cartridge. In a preferred embodiment, the seal is provided on a flange at the back of the holding frame and another seal is provided on a cover that holds the cartridge into the holding frame.
